“DRC is still an exciting destination for investors and business in the sector has by no means come to a standstill,” says event portfolio director Emmanuelle Nicholls.

« La RDC reste une destination attrayante pour les investisseurs et entreprises du secteur dont l’activité est loin d’être au point mort. », ajoute Emmanuelle Nicholls, directrice du groupe Mines et ressources naturelles de Clarion Events Afrique, l’organisateur de DRC Mining Week depuis 17 ans.

"It was impressive how everyone embraced going digital, despite the technical and connectivity problems at times."

"We recently announced the opening of a second CM Diamant hospital in Lubumbashi, which will focus on COVID-19 and pulmonary diseases."

“We have taken the decision to postpone following a period of continuous engagement with our stakeholders and customers” says David Ashdown, MD of Clarion Events Africa.

"DRC Mining Week s'est révélée tout aussi innovante que la communauté minière de la RDC"

Day 3 of Digital DRC Mining focused on COVID-19 and the mining sector adopting new technologies and rethinking their H&S protocols.

« Nous sommes très fiers de notre programmation et du soutien que l'industrie a montré », a déclaré Elodie Delagneau, directrice de DRC Mining Week.

“It is clear that the global mining community is taking notice of the enormous potential of the DRC,” says the event director Elodie Delagneau.

The event, which was due to take place from 17-19 June, will now run from 7-9 October 2020. The venue Lubumbashi remains unchanged.
